All black fanz HOLA!!!!!?

Question

Does the all blacks have some sort of bad luck wen we go n to the world cupz, or is just the players them selfs being BIG headed??

how many times hve we gone in to the world cup ranked number 1, but seem to never get the grand prize of world rugby.

WHY NZ??

Answer 1

Actually guys, winning most games and then not doing well in the World Cup should not be acceptable.  What the world Cup does, is test the mental strength of the teams as much as their skills etc.

That was the problem with N.Z. and Australia, just not mentally in it.  I dont mean this as a criticism.  I truly believe this.  You have to win when it matters, when the pressure is ON.  N.Z. are always favorites to win any match which is perhaps not good for the team as come crunch time, they falter.

hey hawkeye74 your back! good 2 see you again!......(there I go drifting again)

thats the way the cookie crumbles I guess, us 'watching from the side line coaches' are all to familiar (in our minds) with what will work and what will not however its not up to the armchair coach..... daaaammmnn!

In the mean time I guess we'll have to ponder that thought for (all together now) another 4 years lol!

edit:debra m and gawry yep "props" to that your onto something there....... get back to it tomorrow......

Far too much emphases is put on the World Cup. It's only a tournament every four years.

Yes, there is a common fact occurring happening when it comes to the World Cup, but the All Blacks were by far the better team out of all the teams in the World Cup tournament. This team has everything that a good team wants and if there was anything that this team was going to be beaten by,,,,,,,,,, well, we all saw the game.

All Blacks are never over confident as a professional team they always respect their oppositions.

Answer 4

God knows!!!!! HOLA HOLA I AM ALL BLACKS FAN AND U R d**n RIGHT I AM A KIWI

Answer 5

It's not Bad Luck!

Maybe they couldn't find the rythm. Once you find the tempo in your game you begin to pick up and display your fine skills.

The ABs couldn't get theirs in the Semi Finals....but they will in the next 4yrs......TRUST ME!

Answer 6

group C this time around was spectacularly weak. (scotland came second to the all blacks, but were barely able to give argentina a match).

it takes very strong captaincy for a team to spend the pool stage playing minnows without its making them complacent.

captaincy has always been a problem for the all blacks. to some extent this is built into the national consciousness. new zealanders have always admired players of individual brilliance (and have nearly always had them). but then the more stars you have the more difficult it is to form a team.

the all black's captaincy wavered noticeably in the last quarter hour of their match against france, when the game was still winnable but the forwards seemed to have forgotten that.

(a further problem was that teams coached by graham henry seem always to have had captaincy problems).

Answer 7

Who knows bro.  Dominate for 3 years and 11 months and then lose one game and BOOM, it's over rover.  It's harder to win when everyone is focussing more on stopping you than winning the cup I guess.  

Well, lets hope for another 3 years and 11 months of whoopin tail.  I'd rather that than losing everything for 4 years and then winning the cup.  Of course 3 years and 11 months of kicking butt followed by a WC would be acceptable too!

Answer 8

yourlame.

Answer 9

it doesnt matter bro we still ranked no.1,this is where the world cup is overrated the ABs will still hold no.1 ranking and they will still be consistant for the nxt 4 yrs because we  knock over who ever wins this tournament ,its envitable.
